  fat. 2. Reserve pan drippings and pour into a 1 cup
  measuring cup. Add beef broth, if necessary to make 1
  cup. Set aside. 3. Blend flour and salt and pepper, to
  taste, into fat in baking dish.
  4. Heat, uncovered, in Microwave Oven 5 to 7 minutes
  or until lightly browned.

  uncovered, in Microwave Oven 2 minutes or until
  thickened and smooth. Stir gravy every 30 seconds
  during cooking. 6. If desired, brown bouquet sauce may
  be added to gravy for color.
